[A large vascularized allograft of the femoral diaphysis in man].
A fresh vascularised femoral allograft was used to replace a 27 centimetre section of the diaphysis of the femur following a crush injury in a 35 year old man. The technique of operation and details of management are described. After nine months the graft junctions were incorporated, and vascular perfusion was satisfactory.
